Widget Web User Reviews

Best for live interactive URL widget.

I think being able to use as widgets on home screen would be even better.

This the only widgets that let you navigate the webpages within the widget. The other apps are just frozen snapshots that refresh on interval.

Works flawlessly

I use it for displaying information from google app scrips as HTML and it couldn’t be better

Works great! Fills a niche.

This widget works so well! I use it very day to display a graph that’s only available online.

So so

Only displays static web page that refreshes no less than every 15 minutes. Pages are not interactive other than opening page itself. There is another app that is better. I paid for pro version but no advantage that I saw. Display range of page is limited and I can only get mobile web pages so can’t pinch and zoom.

In the new version 3.0, you can now ignore Apple's recommendation to update no more than 15 minutes. Take a look and write to support about the result.

Great response from dev

I had a small issue with my webpage crop moving, contacted developer who suggested a change to settings to see if it would help temporarily, after about a month he’s updated the app due to the issue I was having and I’m hopeful it’s now all sorted

- very quick response support, nice to see devs not just charging for apps and then no support.

Highly recommended from me , thank you👏👍🏻

Keep losing its position in the web page

Not reliable at all. The scheduled refresh don’t work and it keeps losing the position in the webpage. The widget only works the first time you set it.
Waste of money ( I bought the paid version, hoping it would solve some of the problems).

Response from developer

The new version 3.0 has some improvements that may fix your issue. Take a look and write to support about the result.

Brilliant app for creating custom iOS widgets of web pages

I find this app immensely useful for creating Home Screen widgets that show me updated information about what is most important to me. For example, I have three widgets set up on my home screen for weather, allergy conditions and a work-related dashboard. On another home screen, I have a full screen of widgets from various news sources that allow me to check headlines at a glance and click through to open the full webpages.

The developer has been extremely responsive to feature requests submitted from within the app. One feature that I requested, Dark Mode, has been implemented and I’m very happy with the improved aesthetic.

If you’re looking for a way to add customized widgets to your iOS device, I would highly recommend trying this app.

Even pro version can't display all of crop area

They made a feeble attempt top to provide instructions,but the instructions reference nonexistent choices which,even if interpreted,lesson lead in circles. Glad I didn't buy.

Response from developer

Hello, if you have any problems, please contact support from the application menu. The app has video instructions available on YouTube.

Works well

Works very well and was very much worth the money - haven’t used for very long so will update after a while but so far so good; useful and better/more easily maneuverable than similar apps (ex. Glimpse). Also has native apps for iPad AND iPhone which I appreciate very much.

One of the top Widget tools!

I’ve used this tool mainly to create weather related widgets. Compared to all the others I’ve tried, this one has easily risen to the top. A few items on my wish list that would really set this app apart from all the others:
- Adding the larger 4x2 widget size iOS 15 now supports
- Backing up saved widgets to allow them to be imported between devices
- Ability to group widgets in categories
- Option to adjust the browser font size that is used to view the web site. This would be TREMENDOUSLY helpful with reflowing text on sites that have text stretched across the screen that you are trying to make fit in the fixed widget frame size and still allow one to read the text.

hello, its better to write feature requests to support from app menu. I will research your requests. As for now you can backup widgets settings and restore them on other device. There is an option in app menu.
